MONO.PUNKT #26: NEW YORK ART BOOK FAIR 2014

It is precisely 18:01 now, meaning that one minute ago, across the big pond, the doors opened to this year’s installment of the mother of all art book fairs, obviously in New York and where else? We imagine a stampede of book lovers, wallets in hand (last year, all ATMs in the vicinity of PS1 [...]

Worldwide and for one [...]
